News of the week.

Tether is alive. Deltec Bank & Trust Limited (the bank where Tether is holding its funds) confirms the company’s account value, as for October 31, 2018 there was more than US$ 1.8B.

Goldman Sachs and Bitcoin. One of the leading investment banks is attracting its biggest clients to participate in their new product – the BItcoin derivatives. It will be similar to futures by CME and CBOE, however it won’t be traded on exchanges.

Ethereum development. Vitalik Buterin claims that after a Serenity update is implemented the throughput of the network will be increased by 1000 times up to 14k TPS. However the team will work as long as needed to be sure that there are no threats. We should take into consideration that due to one mistake in the code the DAO project has lost more than US$ 60M.

We can see that infrastructure projects have the biggest market share. It happens because the cryptocurrency market is very young and platforms like Bitcoin and Ethereum are becoming more and more outdated, due to small throughput and lack of scalability. So new platforms like EOS, Zilliqa came to market.

On the second place we can see Finance industry, there are different projects like exchanges, that are the main source to get cryptocurrencies now.

After a successful Telegram private sale, that attracted US$ 1.7B led the industry of Communication to the third place.

Trading and Investing took the fourth place. In our opinion it happens due to the fact that there are a lot of enthusiasts at the market, and they decided to entrust their funds to professionals.

The fifth place went to Payments. It is one of the most important implementation of crypto assets, that could boost the capitalization of the cryptocurrency market.

3. ICO ROI analysis

ROI is one of the main character of a successful ICO. So here the list of top 10 ICO by ROI from the ICO.
